OR, LOVE'S COMPANIONSHIP. 



What would you give to have Jesus 
with you — with you as He once was with 
people in the long ago? When reading 
about Him have you not felt that you 
were reading of an absent person — one 
whom you would see in the next life, but 
not here? 

If you love a person very dearly you 
cannot bear to be away from him; you 
feel that by staying away you wrong the 
loved one as well as yourself. I do not 
see how Jesus could love me very much 
and willingly be absent from me. I do 
not feel satisfied when told that He sees 
me; I want to see Him.

8 With Jesus. 

Beading of Jesus in the Bible makes 
people hungry to have Him with them, 
until they get the idea that it is of no use 
to expect this. It seems foolish to think 
He cannot be with us, when we can be 
with one another; or that He does not 
care to do so, or thinks it is best for us 
that He should not. The more you con- 
sider any such reasons as these, the more 
foolish you will see them to be. 

If Jesus were here in the body and you 
were promised an opportunity of meeting 
Him, say some day next week, you would 
hardly think of anything else until then; 
or if Jesus were to come where you were, 
you would leave whatever you might be 
doing, to follow Him anywhere. You 
would not even ask where He was going; 
you would hardly care as to that. You 
would forget about food or sleep, or 



With Jesus. g 

whether it was night or day. I am sure 
you would cling to Him in this way, if 
you felt as even the weakest Christian 
would feel. 

Can you imagine how those who were 
with Jesus when He was here in the body 
must have loved Him? how being with 
Him must have made them feel? But 
why did He leave those who thus clung to 
Him, and towards whom He showed such 
tender love? When Jesus first spoke of 
going away, they were in deep sorrow; 
they did not understand His going. But 
in Jesus' acts, and what followed them, 
things were exactly the opposite of that 
which the disciples expected or were used 
to expecting. 

Sometimes people speak of Jesus' going 
away so as to draw us heavenward or to 
accomplish some work in heaven for us, 



io With Jesus. 

but we are apt to misunderstand all that 
is meant by this. 

Jesus said it was best He should go 
away, and He tried to tell them why. 
But if His going away was like other 
people's, nothing could make up for the 
loss. Could anything make up to you for 
the loss of your mother or some one 
equally dear? The person you love is 
always more to you than anything he can 
do for you. Your first desire, if you love 
another, is to have him with you. To be 
denied companionship, in the end causes 
your love to perish. 

You may learn to love one you have 
never seen; but, when you have done so, 
you want that person with you — you can 
never be satisfied without this. 

I think that Jesus came and went away 
for the purpose of bringing each one of 



With Jesus. n 

us into a life of real companionship with 
Him. I think He came to live with peo- 
ple for a time in their poor way so that 
He might bring them and us to live with 
Him in His perfect way. 

As you read the Bible story aright you 
first associate with Jesus in much the 
same way His disciples did, and through 
doing so rightly you associate with Him 
in this new way. " Perhaps you say, " I 
know Jesus is with me in spirit." But 
that is not at all what I mean. Some- 
times when a friend goes away he says, 
" I will still be with you in spirit." But 
that does not satisfy; you want the real 
presence of your friend with you. 

We say, " God is with us," meaning 
that He sees everything we do. But God 
cannot be with you as a companion unless 
you are with Him as such. Through a 



12 With Jesus. 

telescope a man watched his boy playing 
on a hill - side several miles away, and 
saw him do some things that grieved him, 
and others that gave him pleasure. In 
some such way we are apt to think of God 
as with us. But in reality this father was 
as far away from his boy as the boy was 
from him. That he could see his son 
from a distance did not alter that fact. 

On the night before Jesus was crucified 
He talked with the disciples about His 
going away and spoke of coming again. 
You will find most of what He said in the 
fourteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth chap- 
ters of John. He said, " In a little while 
ye shall not see me; and again, a little 
while, and ye shall see me, because I go 
to the Father " (John 16: 16). Those 
were strange words. They puzzled the 
disciples. They said, " What is this that 



With Jesus, ij 

He saith, A little while? We cannot un- 
derstand what He means." 

Jesus knew that they wanted to ask His 
meaning; so, without waiting for their 
question, He goes on to explain. He 
speaks of sorrow they will soon have be- 
cause of His crucifixion. He says, "Ye 
shall weep and lament, but the world 
shall rejoice; but your sorrow shall be 
turned into joy." Then He adds, " This 
will be a joy that no one can take 
from you." Why? Because it will be 
lasting (vs. 20-22). He tells them that 
things will be quite different then. Now 
they are seeking help through prayer to 
the Father, but they understand prayer 
only poorly, and so receive little benefit 
from it. 

Do you know that true prayer means 
talking with? The disciples did not real- 



14 With Jesus. 

ize that even as they spoke they were 
praying to Jesus. But after He was gone 
they could realize that Jesus was God, 
one with the Father, equal with the 
Father, and that all which the Father 
had was His. And Jesus tells them that 
when they know all this and have Him 
with them in a new companionship, they 
will then ask of Him or talk with 
Him in such a way that their joy will be 
full. 

In the fourteenth chapter of John, 
Jesus begins by telling them of His 
Father's house with many mansions. He 
says He is going to the Father to prepare 
mansions for them, and is coming again 
to receive them unto Himself. You may 
have thought about these mansions, but 
not of dwelling in them now. Yet why 
should you not do so? 



With Jesus. 15 

How little we know of heaven! We 
are apt to wonder where it is located. 
Jesus spoke of His kingdom as " the king- 
dom of heaven " and " the kingdom of 
God." He spoke of it as here and as 
" within " 11s, but sometimes He spoke of 
it as above. The spirit-life may well be 
called the life above, or the life of heaven. 
'But there is no up nor down, no above 
nor below, in God's great universe. You 
rise from earth as your heart rises. God 
is above all because He is love. As you 
love you rise; as you hate you descend. 

Perhaps you want to get away from 
earth, for you dislike it. You want to be 
free from care and worry, and here you do 
not feel free from these. But earth can be 
heaven or hell as you choose to make it. 
If God can be in heaven, yet here, you 
can be in heaven while here. 



1 6 With Jesus. 

I do not know much of what is be- 
yond this life. The present is enough 
for me now. As I live in the future, I 
mar both the present and the future. As 
I use the present aright, it will contin- 
ually grow to mean more to me. You 
may always have all of heaven that you 
can hold. I am sure they are making 
a mistake who live a visionary and un- 
real life. To-day alone is yours. Living 
in the future puts you out of accord with 
the life of to-day. It shows contempt 
for God's present gifts and opportunities, 
and is unfitting you to fully enjoy the 
present and the future. 

But Jesus says, " If I go and prepare a 
place for you, I will come again and re- 
ceive you unto myself," or unto these 
mansions. Why this "if"? Because 
there is something for the disciples to do. 



With Jesus. iy 

Will they do it? They are free to choose, 
even as all are. 

Now I want yon to think of God as a 
Father in a new way. A father lives with 
his children. If you truly take God as 
your Father, yon will live with Him and 
He with yon. And if He does this, He 
will make a mansion of yonr heart. There 
are many heart-mansions already. There 
should be one for each of us. 

But Jesus adds, " Whither I go ye 
know, and the way ye know," as though 
saying that they are to follow Him to the 
Father, if they would be with Him and 
the Father. So now they are perplexed 
about the way. He had just before said 
He would come to take them to these 
mansions; now He speaks of the "way," 
as though they were to follow. It is the 
"if" over again. Then Thomas says, 



i8 With Jesus. 

We do not know where you are going, and 
how can we know the way? to which Jesus 
replies: I am the way to the Father (v. 
6). If you had known me, you would 
have known the Father also; " and from 
henceforth ye know Him and have seen 
Him " (v. 7). 

How strange these words! The disci- 
ples are confused. In answer, Philip 
says, " Lord, show us the Father." Jesus 
replies, " Have I been so long time with 
you, and yet hast thou not known 
me? He that hath seen me hath 
seen the Father." The very words I 
speak are not my own, He continues. 
The Father living in me, He speaks them. 
I am in the Father, and the Father is in 
me. 

Jesus is now talking of a wonderful and 
mysterious union. You must try to see 



With Jesus. ig 

how perfect this is. All I do, Jesus says 

— even the very thinking of the thoughts 

— is His; " the Father within me, He 
doeth the works." It is not in express- 
ing your thoughts that the " works " con- 
sist, but in thinking them out. 

This, then, is such a union that Jesus 
is all of the Father. But this is a double, 
or mutual relation, for He says, " I am in 
the Father, and the Father in me." That 
is, * through Jesus, the Father is and does 
everything, and through the Father Jesus 
is and does everything. 

Now I want to speak to you about the 
Trinity. As God is love, the Trinity 
must be a Trinity of Love. But why 
need God as Love be more than one per- 
son? Because it takes at least two to 
make love a possibility. As you love one 
who is above you, you rise. So as you 



20 With Jesus. 

love God, you rise into His likeness. As 
you grow in love to Him you grow in love 
to others. But the Infinite One, to be 
infinite in love, must love what is infinite. 
And God, as infinite in love, must have 
at least one like Himself to love. We 
must think of God as without beginning, 
so if He had no object of love except 
something of His own creation, there 
would have been a time when He was not 
Love. That which is like Himself must 
be God too. So God must be at least two 
persons in order to be, and ever continue 
to be, Infinite Love. 

Now as love between persons is perfect, 
each becomes all that the other is. Of 
course you understand that this is a 
thought or heart-union. But there is an- 
other side to this union which you must 
keep in mind: Love is all action. The 



With Jesus. 21 

amount of your active love measures the 
size of your personal heart. 

Each life that loves is lost to itself to 
find itself. As one loves, he becomes 
truly a person, or a life. You are a per- 
sonality only as your heart lives; and the 
heart lives only as it loves. Your heart- 
life is your personality. It is small or 
great according to the volume of love that 
is there. So you truly live only as you 
live in the life of another. Thus each 
person of the Trinity continues to be a 
separate personality. 

Before this time Jesus had often told 
His disciples about the Father. Now He 
introduces to them the third Person of 
Love. He calls Him " another Com- 
forter." He calls this Comforter the 
"Holy Ghost." The word "ghost" 
means spirit, and He is most often so 



22 With Jesus. 

called. I want you to notice the word 
" Holy." I am sorry it does not convey 
the same meaning to ns that I think it 
did to the disciples. A holy person is 
one who is set apart as sacred, precious or 
dear toward another. I am sure it was 
the sweetest and most loving word by 
which Jesus could introduce the Com- 
forter to them. 

Jesus had spent His life in comforting 
people. He now tells them that another 
like Him is to come. But notice that 
Jesus had a few minutes before said He 
would come to take them to the Father's 
mansions. Here He says that another is 
to come to take them there. So the dis- 
ciples, still confused, ask for further in- 
formation as to how they are to be with 
Jesus in these mansions. 

It was then that Jesus gave them the 



With Jesus. 23 

secret of His new way of being with them 
and of their seeing Him. He says that if 
any man will do thus and so, both He and 
the Father will come and make their 
abode with him. 

But in doing so He takes another way 
of telling them about it. Before, Jesus 
had said He was coming to take them to 
the Father; next, they were to follow 
Jesus to the Father; and now, if they do 
thus and so, He and the Father will come 
and take up their abode with them. 
Eight here I must tell you that the word 
" abode " which He now uses (v. 23) is 
the same word as is translated " man- 
sion " in v. 2. So Jesus is now saying, 
"We will make our mansion with you," 
or make of your heart our mansion. 

From all this you will see plainly that 
if the new Comforter is with the disciples, 



24 With Jesus. 

Jesus and the Father are to be with them. 
To have one is always to have all. The 
Trinity, as Love, could never be separ- 
ated. Perfect Love is perfect union. 
In and with Jesus in the body was each 
and all of the Trinity, though they but 
dimly understood this. The Holy Spirit 
is often called the " Spirit of Jesus," and 
the u Spirit of God." He is also called 
the " Spirit of Love," and Jesus had just 
said that the new Comforter was with 
them now, 

The new Comforter is to be different 
from Jesus only in the way in which they 
will see Him and talk with Him. Jesus 
in visible form is to depart. He promises 
to return in a new form. It is proper 
that in the new form He should have a 
new name, so as to avoid confusion. Be- 
fore He departs, He is the Spirit living in 



With Jesus, 25 

a body. When He returns He will be the 
Spirit without a body. Please notice the 
words, " If any man will," etc. (v. 23). 
If Jesus had said, " If one of you will do 
so and so," then we might doubt whether 
He meant this for everybody. 

Now I want to talk to you about com- 
panionship. Think for a moment how 
imperfect is our companionship with one 
another. We do not really understand 
another person perfectly or make another 
understand us. You use the senses of 
hearing, sight and feeling, that you may 
know or understand something of an- 
other. Through these is conveyed to 
you a little of what is in another's heart 
— but only a little. A living hypocrite 
or a piece of lifeless marble might smile 
upon you a heartless smile, but you would 
not care for either. A body full of heart, 



26 With Jesus. 

or life, you care for. If the spirit is gone, 
or the person becomes heartless, yon turn 
away from what is left. It is the heart 
for which yon care. 

Through the veil of another's body yon 
seek to see the heart. Yon try to convey 
your own heart's thoughts and feelings to 
another by means of imperfect words and 
looks. Our bodies are in the way of our 
knowing and being known to others. Of 
course you want to be with one whom you 
love. To have one's bodily presence, 
even in this imperfect manner, is much 
better than absence; but if we could be 
with one another truly, without our 
bodies being in the way — that is, hiding 
the real self — we would certainly be far 
nearer. Heart-nearness is the nearness 
we all want. The heart is the real per- 
son. You feel happy in this companion- 



With Jesus. 2j 

ship, though that which you love is 
really hidden from you. This is because 
you know of nothing better. But why 
should there not be? 

I used to think that Jesus had gone 
back to a realm of bliss, leaving me here 
in loneliness, privation and sorrow, to 
wait until the end of life. I am now sure 
that Jesus' going away was to bring to me 
a closer union. It was to bring heaven to 
us, or you may say to take us with Him to 
heaven. Paul speaks of being seated in 
heavenly places with Jesus. 

In the prayer which followed, Jesus 
asked the Father that the disciples might 
be with Him beholding His glory (John 
17: 24). This was not asking that they 
might leave the world — or be absent 
from the body — for He said, " I pray not 
that thou shouldest take them out of the 



28 With Jesus. 

world " (v. 15). Yet love for Jesus sep- 
arates — it takes your real life out of the 
world. 

To draw you to Him, Jesus needed to 
come and make known His love. Then, 
as He is with the Father, so as you love 
Him, or act by this love, you are with 
Him and the Father. 

The disciples did not really know Jesus 
until they had ceased to know Him in 
the body. It was not until His real self 
(absent from the body) was with them, 
that they could truly know Him. They 
had embraced His body before, because 
they longed to bring His heart in contact 
with their hearts. Before, they thought 
they had touched Him, but they touched 
only what was material; now heart 
touched heart. Before, it was the touch 
of a fleeting moment; now it was to be 



With Jesus. 2Q 

one life-long embrace. It was as Jesus 
had said it would be — " joy complete," 
and a joy no man could take from them 
(John 16: 22). 

Before, they thought they had heard 
Him speak when by means of imperfect 
words He tried to convey to their hearts 
His own heart (the Father's heart). But 
how little they had really heard so as to 
understand! Much of what He said had 
been meaningless. You do not care to 
hear what one says to you in an unknown 
tongue. They now realized what He had 
told them — that in this day He would 
speak to them plainly; "no more in 
proverbs," — or speech hard to be under- 
stood (v. 25). 

As Jesus' ever dying was His ever liv- 
ing, so His going away meant coming 
to them truly and fully. His being 



jo With Jesus. 

with the Father was His being with 
them. The disciples never realized their 
union with Him until after their sorrow 
over His death and their joy over His 
resurrection into new companionship with 
them. 

I wish you could see how Jesus opens, 
or wishes to open, to you and me the 
spirit-world. Perhaps you have looked 
beyond this life for the heaven-life. Like 
Martha, who thought she must wait until 
the resurrection day to meet Lazarus, you 
need to hear Jesus say, " I am the resur- 
rection; from me there need be no separ- 
ation," and there will not be if you 
choose to have it so. 

But after Jesus was crucified, He came 
back in the body again and again. I 
think these appearances, and what He 
said and did in connection with them, 



With Jesus. Ji 

were to better prepare the disciples for 
the change from the imperfect to the 
perfect companionship of which He had 
told them. At times He would appear. 
Then His form would fade away. Thus 
He led them to open their inner eyes to 
Him. 

At last came the time when He 
thought it safe to remove His body en- 
tirely from their sight, so that they might 
have the promised constant and perfect 
vision of Him. Out of the city He leads 
them, and on the little hill of Olivet, as 
He still blesses them, He is parted from 
them and a cloud receives Him from 
their sight. But before this He has told 
them to remain in Jerusalem and wait 
for His new and perfect coming. 

As they stand gazing upward at the 
cloud which has received Him, two 



32 With Jesus. 

strangers in white robes suddenly appear, 
who give assurance of His promised re- 
turn. And now Luke tells us they went 
back to Jerusalem with great joy, and 
were continually in the temple praising 
and blessing God (Luke 24: 53). How 
impossible this would have been if they 
were now without Jesus! I can only be- 
lieve that the beginning of His going 
away was the beginning of His coming to 
them more truly. We do not read of 
their ever being so happy as now, and it 
must have been this that gave them con- 
stant happiness. 

You need not think that Jesus staid 
away and then came back suddenly, but 
rather that He kept coming more and 
more perfectly. As you see a friend ap- 
proaching, your joy begins. Perhaps 
you hasten to meet him. But the climax 



With Jesus. jj 

of joy comes with the meeting. Each day 
must have made the new way of seeing 
Jesus clearer, more real, more easy, and 
more natural. As thus love grew, the 
world about them and within them 
changed. The Father's mansions began 
to glitter to the eye of love. Music of 
heaven began to fall upon the heart's 
ears, while with them and within them 
more and more truly they saw Him whom 
they loved. 

At last came the climax; the day when 
the Spirit-Jesus (the Precious Spirit, the 
Comforter,) became to them all that He 
had before promised. Perhaps it was for 
this they had prayed while yet full of joy. 
As you begin to know Jesus ever so little 
in this new way, you are full of joy, for 
you see what is before you and you seek 
for it. I will not say much about the 



34 With Jesus. 

day of Pentecost, which was the time 
when this climax came. 

I wish there were time to speak of the 
sweet, attractive and helpful words which 
His new and perfect coming enabled them 
to speak; how they could now tell so lov- 
ingly of Jesus that thousands at once be- 
came His disciples. Notice that they 
preached to the people about Jesus, but 
when they spoke of Him as with them 
now, they added the word " Spirit." To 
have done otherwise would have been to 
confuse their hearers. 

If you would understand how much 
this new companionship with Jesus 
meant, read how those who entered it felt 
and acted. We are told that they were 
" all of one heart and soul " — that is, 
one in heart and soul with Jesus. Be- 
sides, love complete for Him gave them a 



With Jesus. 33 

love complete for each one who loved 
Him thus, for we are told, " Neither said 
any man that aught of the things which 
he possessed was his own." 

What was the secret of this new com- 
panionship? Jesus said it was as follows: 
"If any man love me, he will keep my 
words; and my Father will love him, and 
we will come unto him, and make our 
abode (or mansion) with him." Why 
would the Father and Jesus be with all 
who keep Jesus' words? And just what 
did Jesus mean by His u words "? 

He could not have meant His spoken 
words alone. These amounted to com- 
paratively little, for they were poorly un- 
derstood. His life was His real words. 
In everything He had sought to teach His 
disciples to be as He was, and they were 
to continue to be so. They would know 



j6 With Jesus. 

Him far more truly in this new com- 
panionship, and could be more nearly like 
Him. 

A life of seeing the real Jesus was 
necessary in order to live like Him. 
Jesus said that the world could not re- 
ceive His Spirit because it could not see 
Him (John 14: 17). 

In all hearts He lived, and lives, seek- 
ing to win each to a life of seeing Him; 
but only as one loves Him can he enter 
this life. 

Do not, I beg you, say, " This life is 
not for me," because only a few seem to 
have found it. A babe can love as truly 
as a grown person, and is even more likely 
to do so. Once Jesus said something 
about God's revealing to babes things 
which were hidden from the wise. 

What I am here trying to teach you is 



With Jesus. jy 

in accordance with what Jesus taught 
elsewhere. Eead carefully the tenth 
chapter of John — "I am the Good 
Shepherd," etc. A shepherd is a person 
who is with and takes care of sheep; 
that is what the very name means. 
Jesus here emphasized His being with 
the disciples and they with Him. 
Then read the fifteenth chapter of John 
— u I am the Vine, ye are the branches," 
etc. This is a living union, and surely 
the closest one of which we can con- 
ceive. 

This new companionship is the same 
kind that Jesus has with the Father and 
the Father with Jesus. Is not this close 
enough? Jesus prayed that the disciples 
might be one with Him, even as He and 
the Father were one. You desire just 
this companionship. I know that noth- 



j 8 With Jesus. 

ing else can ever satisfy your heart's long- 
ings. 

May yon trnly find it. 

Lovingly yours,

a number. When once you have joined, you are 
always a member unless you withdraw. 
Privileges op Members. 

One of the chief features of the Circle is its silver 
ring, because wearing it as directed, when once the 
Charmed Life is understood, so greatly helps one to 
enter it and keep there. The ring is sent free and 
postpaid. But Circle members have much besides to 
help them. 

A Personal Friend to Write to.— Each one is 
entitled to the privilege of correspondence with Mr. 
Cook, the founder of the Circle. Members may write 
to him whenever in perplexity or trouble. Each letter 
so received is confidential. Each one is answered 
personally. No charge is made for any answer. The 
only expense to the one writing is a two-cent stamp 
to pay postage on reply. 

Daily Help from the Charmed Life Book.— 
This contains a letter written by Mr. Cook for each 
day of the month. The Letters are intended as helps 
for each day for a year. At the end of the first year 
you can receive a new book containing a new set of 
letters by sending five cents for the same, and again 
at the end of the second year. 

Access to a Library of Helpful Letters.— 
These letters, written by Mr. Cook, are upon subjects 
.in which Circle members are most interested. They 
have been written in answer to questions from Circle 
members. Each Letter is printed in the shape of a 
little book. These letters, which you may keep, cost 
only a penny each. To this library are constantly 
being added new letters. 

Full particulars sent free. Address, 

DAVID C. COOK, I. A. H. CIRCLE,
